>WWE great “The Miz” is in disbelief by the trade and can’t believe the team did this to their fans.

>Anyone. But. Myles.

>Before the draft, I buried the season. After the draft, I believed again.

>And now, at 35,000 feet, the Browns have somehow found a new way to ruin my flight.

>Please tell me this isn’t real, @Browns.”
